Originally launched by UICC, City Cancer Challenge struck out on its own and needed to brand itself as an independent organisation working to improve cancer care in cities around the world. With a passionate and diverse global team, the brand identity and position needed to be bold, adaptable, and differentiated.

CAMPAIGN

Alliance for Safety and Justice wanted to highlight the many barriers and restrictions that people living with felony convictions face upon release from prison, of which most Americans are unaware. The number of people convicted of a crime classified as a felony offense has skyrocketed over the past four decades: There are more than 20 million people (1 in 12 adults) in the U.S. with a current or prior felony conviction, about four times more than in 1980. These individuals face hundreds of restrictions on employment, professional licensing, voting, housing, benefits, and more. Too often, these barriers prevent them from earning a decent living, supporting their families, and becoming productive members of the community. Rather than relying solely on facts and statistics, we sought to tell a human story that would inspire empathy from the audience.

Emergence Creative, in partnership with the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), launched a thought-provoking campaign in April 2017 to remind the public of their First Amendment rights and reassure immigrants that they too are protected by the U.S. Constitution.
